Mentor less experienced engineers on architecture, ownership, and code quality.
Contribute to team processes, improving how we deliver, not just what we deliver.

Ability to debug issues across multiple layers (API, database, async jobs, frontend).
Strong communication skills and ability to explain technical decisions clearly.
Comfortable working in an agile environment with a focus on ownership and delivery.
Experience working in cloud environments (AWS preferred) and understanding how applications behave in production.

Understanding of production systems (logging, monitoring, debugging live issues).
